I've decided to rebuild the NP435 instead of swapping to NV3500, I'm used to the gear spread now, and actually like it with the 2.90's out back. That, and I hear the 3500 trans is weak in comparison.

That opens me up to putting together a entertaining engine for my 74 D100 and putting the 318 aside. I have a boatload of take-offs from various projects and a 89 roller cam 360 block. So here's the combo, 4" Scat...

Some of the things I forgot to note, swapped to all LEDs in the dash. I can read the gauges at night, woohoo!

2nd, was putting a set of Hella H4 headlight housings in with Philips Xtreme vision bulbs. Another life saver,...

I've got the motor in the frame and the cab set on. I had to set the motor back 7" or so for steering and exhaust clearance. The rear trans mount I reused but I had to add tubing to the inside of the frame for the...

Ok, so I am going to carry out a few mods to my A100 this year.
1. Brakes
2. Steering
3. Fuel delivery
4. Engine power

I'll start it of here with my brakes upgrade. I have just had confirmation of what I need on the bottom end for the conversion. But what I need to know is - has anyone else actually done this upgrade themselves? The only thing I think I will need to calculate is the actual change in the master...

It's been a long time since I was over here on a regular basis. Been really busy over with FBBO, and the great bunch of guys there. Have not used my A100 for a coup,le of years now....it just sits gathering dust and ageing gracefully under a cover in my buddy's barn. It's always a treat to take it out for a ride....usually involves a few burnouts etc.

Anyway, my questions are going to start up again...getting excited about getting back into the trucky thing now. I know that...

I have a '62 D100 with a Poly 318. I'm looking to add an air conditioner and need to swap out the crank pulley to a two groove pulley from a single groove. The stock crank pulley on the early truck engines in not a harmonic balancer style, see attached pictures. My question is, can I use a a later style harmonic balancer that have two-grooves and not damage the engine?
